Can you have an unsecured couch in the back of a cargo van as actual seats?

I know its illegal not to have a seatbelt on if your under 16 in the back. Is it legal to have just a couch in the back that isnt bolted down or anything?

What it it WAS bolted down?Can you have an unsecured couch in the back of a cargo van as actual seats?sure....go for it....but when someone gets hurt or killed in the van you will be held responsible for man slaughter.

so if a couch in a van is worth jail time of least 15-45 years....stick it in.Can you have an unsecured couch in the back of a cargo van as actual seats?to meet safety standards %26amp; crash standards, no.

even if it was bolted down, if you had an accident and someone was injured. you're liable.I think you would have to have it bolted down according to existing safety standards, with seat belts too.Only if you want your passengers to die.I would imagine it depends on the laws in your area. In Maine, seat belts are required for all ages.why worry?If you have a couch in the back of your cargo van, which is not

bolted down, it's not an offence provided no one is sitting on

it, as you can claim that you're merely carrying it as an item for

delivery.

However, if it's bolted down and someone is sitting on it, then

it's an offence, because you're creating an illegal and extra

seat to the van without permission from the licensing and

transport authorities.no you can,tDefinitely NO! And don't do it anyway.i own a repair shop,and no its not legal at all even if its bolted down ,if it had seat belts and was bolted down i don't think they would or could say anything about it,but without all of that it would be very illegal,good luck i hope this help,si bet not but just ask your dmv or try your state .dmv.govIf you are moving it to your house/apt yes. Yes otherwise its illegal and hazardous to anyone sitting on it in the event of a accident.
